[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#623905: Depends on python2.5 packages

[Luca Falavigna]

Source: mgltools-opengltk
Version: 1.5.4.cvs.20100912-1
Severity: important
User: debian-python at lists.debian.org
Usertags: python2.5-removal

python2.5 is going to be removed from the archive very soon [0]. A
recent python-defaults upload already disabled support for Python 2.5,
so it is no longer a supported version for modules and extensions.

This package build-depends or depends on one or more packages built
on top of the python2.5 source package, and will be uninstallable
when they will be removed from Sid and Wheezy.

You should consider dropping build-dependencies and dependencies on
those packages, checking if code is compatible with newer releases of
Python. [1] and [2] explain changes introduced upstream.
